Six weeks of Closed Season remaining

So, as the title tells, there's "only" six weeks of closed season remaining before the rivers open for fishing again. In the meantime, we've been fly fishing for pike and rainbow trout on some nearby lakes. And tying flies. Lots and lots of flies. Actually that was a lie, 'cause I'm so lazy when it comes to tying flies that I just barely have managed to tie enough of them when the new season begins in spring.

Take pictures, don't fish

Last weekend we went fly fishing for rainbows to that same nearby lake again. My friend managed to catch a nice one on dry fly, while I had only one rainbow on for sometime.

It's finally winter here in Finland. Or it has actually been for two weeks already, and it feels quite awesome because only a bit over two weeks ago it still was raining and the temperatures were something like +5 degrees celsius.

That means, of course, that we've spent quite a lot of time photographing and, well, photographing. And of course we've also tied lots of flies for next season.

Howdy guys,
we're back! Or technically I am, but doesn't matter. And we haven't really even been away...

But anyways, maybe something not so completely off-topic chitchat would be more interesting, eh?

So, to start with, the winter is stepping aside and the temperatures are hitting springly readings on a daily basis! Technically we could go fishing right now to some nearby river, but we're a bit tight on our schedule, so the fishing - it feels bad to say this - will have to wait. And that's a bummer, but sometimes you just have to deal with blunt stuff like that.

Next summer everything will be totally different, though (or then exactly the same, one can never know). We're hoping to get to hit some good hatches and stuff and to catch some chubby trouts and their siblings. There's one certain thing at the heart of this uncertaintiness, though, and that's C&R. That's right, just as we've done before, we'll try and give our best shot in pra…

Earlier today we went fishing for rainbow trout to a small lake nearby. Fishing was good, fish' were surfacing and they also bit flies quite eagerly. We managed to land three rainbow trouts in total and lost as many. For more pictures, visit our Instagram page.
